Christoph,

I brought that to the attention of the company, but they refuse to pay
for the book with the reasons:
1. The program is free, but how to use it we should pay?
2. The program and the documentation seems to be independent, means
there is no guaranty that the information is correct nor a chance to get
it fixed.
3. If we have to pay, then we pay to a commercial product.


For me it is also not understandable that the documentation is a
different project and extra to pay. I understand that the effort should
be awarded. BUT a good programmer will make the documentation at the
same time, otherwise nobody can use the program.

Therefore, where are the docs, that lead to the book?

bye

Ronald
